The Title Update announced last month for Fable II has finally come to fruition -- Lionhead says it's now out and ready for downloadin'. Great way to start the weekend, hey? Release notes below.

There has also been an update to Tales of Albion with the addition of Knothole Island. You can now find it on the Albion map in Today's Travels.

- Rescuing Charlie/Rescue My Baby – after rescuing Charlie, you can now able to interact with objects

- Guild Cave chest – resolves any issues with previously inability to retrieve items unlocked from Limited Collector’s Edition, website or Chicken Kickin’ game. If you’ve already hit this bug you should now get your items.

    Hopefully this will draw people back to an amazing game that was, unfortunately, unplayable for some.

    Especially when a lot of the discs had minor scratches in them when opened.

    Hmm, I am a bit disappointed your child isn't the target of assassination attempts anymore. That was a pretty funked up, but gritty element I hate to see go... wait, it was a bug? Doh.

      I thought the same. Maybe it wasn't a bug.....

        True, and isn't the first time something like that has happened. e.g. The D&D game Temple of Elemental Evil had one "chaotic evil" quest line that involved slaughtering children. It was removed from the final version of the game, but (if I remember correctly) legacy quest elements remained. Few other examples I can think of too.

        That said, while no one wants to see a child killed it was a very unnerving element to the game that I actually appreciated. Think back to the line from Al Pacino in the Untouchables: "I want him DEAD, I want his FAMILY DEAD..." Something very gritty and realistic about fearing what deeds you perform because it may come back to haunt your loved ones...
